Enter preemptive message:

Dear mister lady reader person, please stop getting mad at me for changing my art style. I don't even know if you will this time, but you have in the paaaast, so I shall state this before you even get a chance! I like to have variation in what I do; I enjoy the challenge of trying to make my art stand by itself in regards to the style. It's pretty much always the same type of humor though, so you have that! Is it always successful? Definitely not, but that doesn't mean I don't like to try! I just don't want to be a one trick pony! There, you officially can't be mad at me anymore since I used that horse pun on a horse comic. nobutforseriouspleasedontsendmenotessaying"IWATCHEDUBECAUSEUUSEDATKEWLSTYLEANDNOWUNOTBEUSINGITWWWTTTFFF".

In US History, there was a time when the acronym N.I.N.A. (No Irish Need Apply) was used to keep irish immigrants from taking all the jobs from US citizens. However, in the world of Pinkie Pie N.P.N.A. (No Physics Need Apply) is used to state that the Laws of Physics run from Pinkie Pie.

This has been your random educational tangent of the day. Remember: never stop learning.

There was a large influx of irish immigrants (due to the potato famine I believe). With so many of them looking for a job, they would work for lower wages than the rest of the citizenry. Non-Irish workers got upset prompting business owners to create personal policies against the hiring of Irish workers. Ergo, the NINA acronym and signs came to be... well that's what how I understood it from that day in US History class we took to go over Irish Immigration Issues around the Time of the Irish Potato Famine (I don't remember the year range...) before we moved on to other topics.

You know, "there are people who actually *pay* attention in" English class, too. Well, some do. We call them grammar nazis, but not all of them are.

I know what you meant, so it's fine. I'm just glad I'm not the only person on this part of the Internet who appreciates seeing what they learned in school outside that atmosphere, no matter how the knowledge is brought back up in something almost completely unrelated (i.e. it's only really related by the tangent that spawned this chain).

There was an element of there being a lot of desperate Irish immigrants following the potato famine, but a lot of it was just racism. You see it again and again throughout US history: whichever ethnic group has a high proportion of first-generation immigrants in the country is composed entirely of dirty <insert racial slur here> that are lazy and stupid and want to steal all the jobs from honest real Americans. There was a time when I remembered which ethnicity it was after the Irish, and at that point the Irish, being now honest real Americans, were very much on the racism bandwagon against the new guys. Maybe it was the Chinese? Anyway, it is of course actually the case that the immigrants who are willing to work for almost nothing are mostly the ones who are poor, uneducated, and speak little to no English, so they end up in the sort of unskilled labor that nobody who can possibly get any other job (such as honest real Americans who speak English as a first language) would take.

And of course, right now it's Mexicans, but since it's the 21st century it's less socially acceptable to be open about your racism.

Hey, you can't get a long face everytime someone horses around in the comments. You just got to get back on the horse and try to new things like always. We can all learn not to beat a dead equine from you.
